The University of South Africa Unisa has distanced itself from a statement circulating on social media falsely claiming that attorney Sarah-Jane Trent does not hold a degree from the institution.
The post, which was shared on X, alleged that the university had received numerous inquiries about Trents qualifications and claimed there were no records of a student by that name ever registering or graduating with a law degree.
In response, Unisa on Monday issued an official statement confirming that the claim was false and that Trent was in fact a graduate of the institution.
